Recently, module-integrated converter (MIC) research has shown interest in small-scale photovoltaic (PV) generation. The converter is capable of efficient power generation. In this system, the high frequency transformer should be made compact, and demonstrate high efficiency characteristics. This paper presents a core structure optimization procedure to improve the efficiency of a high frequency transformer of compact size. The converter circuit is considered in the finite element analysis (FEA) model, in order to obtain an accurate FEA result. The results are verified by the testing of prototypes.

제조업에서 생산설비에 사용되는 중요한 에너지원 중 하나는 전력에너지이며, 에너지 다소비 업종의 생산설비 즉, 플랜트에서는 사용하는 에너지의 절감과 효율 운전은 매우 중요한 관심사항이다. 본 논문에서는 생산 플랜트의 한 공정에서 가장 빈번히 사용되는 유도전동기를 모델로 하여 실제 진단, 계측을 통하여 측정값을 얻고, 기존의 운전 중인 설비들을 고효율 기기로 교체하였을 경우의 경제성을 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 현재 운전 중인 설비와 고효율설비로 교체하였을 경우에 대하여 각각 설비들의 연간 운전비용과 자본회수계수에 의한 연간 투자비용을 계산하였고, 이를 합산한 연간 총 운용비용을 비교하여 고효율설비의 경제적 타당성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, new topology is proposed that can dramatically reduce the converter power rating and increase the efficiency of total PV system. Since the output voltage of PV module has very wide voltage range, in general, the DC/DC converter is used to get constant high DC voltage. According to analysis of PV characteristics, in proposed topology, only 20% power of total PV system power is needed for DC/DC converter. DC/DC converter used in proposed topology has flat efficiency curve at all load range and very high efficiency characteristics. The total system efficiency is the product of that of converter and that of inverter. In proposed topology, because the converter efficiency curve is flat all load range, the total system efficiency at the low power range is dramatically improved. The proposed topology is implemented for 200kW PCS system. This system has only three DC/DC converters with 20kW power rating each other. It is only one-third of total system power. The experiment results show that the proposed topology has good performance.

According to the operating characteristics of pump applications, they should exhibit high efficiency and energy saving capabilities throughout the whole operating process. A novel efficiency optimization control strategy is presented here to meet the high efficiency demand of a variable speed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). The core of this strategy is the excellent integration of mended maximum torque to the current control algorithm, based on the losses model during the dynamic and the grade search method with changed step by fuzzy logic during the steady. The performance experiments for the control system of a variable speed high efficiency PMSM have been completed. The test results verified that the system can reliably operate with a different control strategy during dynamic and steady operation, and the system exhibits better performance when using the efficiency-optimization control.

This study was administered to identify features of masstiege high-end products by comparing to original old high-end products. For this purpose, the differences in shopping orientation between each consumer groups by product types(high-end products, original old high-end products) preferred were examined. 300 female consumers were surveyed and 279 data were used for analysis. The results are as follows. First, three elements(efficiency, enjoyment, convenience) of shopping orientation were constructed by factor analysis and efficiency element of all elements had highest explanation power. The differences in shopping orientation between masstiege high-end products and original old high-end products were identified by t-test. The consumers preferring original old high-end products regarded convenience element as an important factor and the consumers preferring masstiege high-end products considered efficiency element more. The correlation analysis between shopping orientation factors and demographic characteristics were administered. The consumers who were of low age, low education, low income and unmarried pursued efficiency more, the consumers who were unmarried, of high education and high income showed to pursue enjoyment more, and the consumers who were of high age, high education, high income and married considered convenience element more. Finally marketing strategies for masstiege brands were suggested.

전기자동차용 전동기는 운전모드에 따라 효율특성이 차이가 나기 때문에 저속 및 고속의 운전모드에서 고효율특성을 평가하기 위한 연구는 매우 중요하다. 따라서 전기자동차 구동용 전동기의 고토크 및 고출력 밀도, 고효율특성을 변경할 수 있는 설계 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 매입형 영구자석 동기전동기의 고정자와 회전자의 직경비를 각각 0.62, 0.65, 0.68로 변경 설계하여 전 운전구간의 효율특성과 시내 및 고속도로 운전모드에서의 평균효율특성을 분석하였다. 전 운전구간의 효율특성을 분석한 결과, 직경비가 증가할수록 고효율 구간이 저속 저토크 구간으로 이동하고, 직경비가 감소할수록 고효율 구간이 고속 저토크 부근으로 이동함을 확인하였다. 시내 및 고속도로 운전모드에서의 평균효율특성을 분석한 결과, 직경비 0.68 모델이 직경비 0.63 및 0.65 모델보다 평균효율이 높게 분석되었으며 시내 및 고속도로 주행모드에 적합함을 확인하였다.

Soybean plants(Glycine max [L.] merr.) inoculated with Bradyrhizobium japonicum MN110 were grown in growth chambers under 400 or $800{\mu}l{\cdot}l^{-1}$ atmospheric $CO_2$ and harvested at 25, 28, 32, and 35 DAT to examine the effect of $CO_2$ enrichment on phosphorus accumulation, uptake, and utilization efficiency during vegetative growth. Phosphorus concentration in leaf was lower in high $CO_2$ plant by 47% at 25 DAT and 34% at 35 DAT than those in the control plant but phosphorus concentrations in stem, root and nodule were not affected by $CO_2$ enrichment. Total phosphorus accumulation increased 3.9-fold in high $CO_2$ plant and 3.2-fold in the control plant between 25 and 35 DAT. Elevated $CO_2$ caused a decrease in the whole plant phosphorus concentration by 35%, which was due almost entirely to a decrease in the phosphorus concentration of leaves. $CO_2$ enrichment increased phosphorus utilization efficiency in the whole plant by 70% during the experimental period. Plants exposed to high $CO_2$ had larger root systems than under ambient $CO_2$, but high $CO_2$ plants had lower P-uptake efficiency. Averaged over four harvests, plants at high $CO_2$ had 38% larger root mass that was more than offset the 20% lower efficiency of P-uptake and accounted for increased phosphorus accumulation by high $CO_2$ plant. These results suggest that the reduced phosphorus concentration in soybean plant under $CO_2$ enrichment may be an acclimation response to high $CO_2$ concentration or enhanced starch accumulation, resulting in the plants to have a lower phosphorus requirement on a unit dry weight basis or a high phosphorus utilization efficiency under these conditions.

A new technique for improving the efficiency of single-phase high-frequency boost converter is proposed. This converter includes an additional low-frequency boost converter which is connected to the main high-frequency switching device in parallel. The additional converter is controlled at lower frequency. Most of the current flows in the low-frequency switch and so, high-frequency switching loss is greatly reduced accordingly Both switching device are controlled by a simple method; each controller consists of a one-shot multivibrator, a comparator and an AND gate. The converter works cooperatively in high efficiency and acts as if it were a conventional high-frequency boost converter with one switching device. The proposed method is verified by simulation. This paper describes the converter configuration and design, and discusses the steady-state performance concerning the switching loss reduction and efficiency improvement.

In this study, the optimal design methods of soft-switching cell for high-voltage DC-DC converter (HDC) of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) is proposed for high efficiency and high power density. The appropriate soft-switching cell for FCEVs is chosen by analyzing the losses of HDC which adopts soft-switching cell. The proposed optimal design methods for the soft-switching cell are divided into two purposes which are improvement of efficiency and power density. Two kinds of design methods enable to improve fuel efficiency and cost, respectively. The proposed design methods are validated with the experimental results based on the specification and hardware used in actual FCEVs.
